🌥 what can you feel your dreams yearning for? 🌥
A hyper heart, illuminating the desires for freedom through excess, the emotional overstimulation through oversimulation. The hyper heart is a reference, spanning a connection of emotionality between the physical and digital life.
Attaching them in excess, yearning for utopia. The utopian dream of limitless freedom, promised in the digital realm. A space without worldly boundaries of the body, the space and time. Serving as a reminder, that this is a possible future, a future we can strive towards through reclaiming the Physicality.
Oversimulating the physical space by overstimulating visitors through emotionally connotated cultural signifiers. Being hyper-aware of their presence and the possibility of occupying space in the body and mind. The bright pink light illuminates the sculpture, luring in the visitors - keeping them under its spell. The promise of utopia through excess of emotions.
💫 omnipresent excess of emotions 💫

Les Nouveaux Riches and Aa Collections are pleased to announce the first solo exhibition of the Milan-based artist Matteo Negri in Vienna. "Meanwhile" explores the subject of time, and the time of the viewer in front of the artworks.
Since its beginnings, the artist has been analysing the perceptual role of the surface, colour, geometric aspects, chromatic variability, and reflection, which he employs as means of alienation for changing ordinary perceptions of volumes and planes. The media he employs span from sculpture and installation to geometric-abstract painting.
In the main gallery room, we have four large aluminium square format works, all 130 X 130 X 6 cm, conceived and produced for this show. In this series, Negri uses different materials and multiple layers applied on aluminium panels. The base of acrylic, shapes an intuitive and simple geometry of flat planes filled with gradients of colour. The artist fixes and saturates the new level on these surfaces with layers of coloured film. Up on it, the dichroic mirrored film shapes the definite geometry that leads the viewer to watch themselves on the artworks. It isn't easy to classify whether these works are abstract paintings or sculptures. Negri plays with approaches, the approach of the viewer, the approach of the architecture, with new colours of iridescent films, unique cuts. It has been told that Octobers in Vienna has a distinctive lighting mood, the artist wants to activate and let his work be activated from this light. A kind of expansion from the inside to the outside, street.
A secondary room contains works with elements with the same language as the first room, this time on several smaller works. They give the viewer an exact time and date, such as "Meanwhile at 10:45 a.m. of the 29th March 2022" or "Meanwhile at 9.27 pm of the 15th April 2022", they talk about similar aspects but they don't establish definitive meanings. They constantly embark themselves on a relationship with the context and with the viewers, in a game of ongoing reflections and perceptions.

Linda Steiner
|
Linda Steiner wurde 1993 in Osttirol geboren und kam 2012 nach Wien, um Kunst zu studieren. Sie besuchte „die Graphische“ für 2 Jahre und kam dort zum ersten Mal mit größeren Formaten in Kontakt. Nach dem Abschluss, und einigen fehlgeschlagenen Bewerbungen an der Akademie der Bildenden Künste, beschloss die junge Künstlerin ihren eigenen Weg, ohne Institution, zu gehen.
2016 schloss sie sich einem KünstlerInnen Atelier an und fand dort den Austausch mit jungen internationalen KünstlerInnen, der sie und ihre Werke sehr geprägt hat. Vor allem im letzten Jahr konnte sie einige Erfolge als Künstlerin verbuchen. Sie zeigte bei Improper Walls Gallery ihre erste Solo Show „Auf Augenhöhe“ und mehrere Arbeiten in verschiedenen Gruppen Ausstellungen in Wien. In ihren Werken beschäftigt sich die Künstlerin meist mit sich selbst und mit ihrem Umfeld. Meist sind die Arbeiten sehr persönlich und intim.
Neben ihrem Fokus auf Malerei setzt sich Linda Steiner auch mit Illustration, Street Art, Linol Drucken, Video und Digitaler Kunst auseinander.
